I have both, took them to disneyworld but mostly used the X3 since you don't have to pay attention to where you are shooting. Tried to use the go3 but didn't find so many opportunities as I did with the X3. If you are going to buy 1 of these only I would definitely recommend the X3. Im not a professional videographer nor editor so I find the X3 very useful because you turn it on, start shooting and continue your vacation without worrying to point the camera.
@@deniss.6205 honestly .... it isn't. I wore in on my cap and footage is not good. Then attached it to a handrail that was over there but footage again was not spectacular. In order to make it good you need more time to attach it and move it to the desired position where you need to record. It is far easier with the X3. This is a video I took with the X3 ruclips.net/video/icxYWV6KnNM/видео.html. The one in rattatoile and the facecam on mission space where taken with go3 and as you can see both videos are mehhhh at its best.
@@ricardordzg agree with you.. im so sad since I should ve buy this instead for non videographer that just wanted to document my abroad study T.T, instead I buy pocket 2, it was still great but the ability to shoot all angle so you dont need to worry where the camera point at is amazing T.T
Which camera is your fave?? If you don't already have one, you can pick them up here which helps support my channel (get a free item with the GO 3 and the X3 via my link! 😊): 🟩👉 Get the GO 3 here: www.insta360.com/sal/go-3?insrc=INR540D 🟩👉 Get the X3 here (use this link for a free accessory): www.insta360.com/sal/x3?insrc=INR540D
For me i prefer x3 for versatility when it comes to family holidays or travel reframing shot that you want to share. Not in a professional way but hust to capture the moment
I had the X3 and although it was great camera and I love the reframe option as that's why I bought it for one thing you did not mentioned is how much space the X3 takes up on your hard drive as it films in 5.7k so I sold it and are now maybe thinking about the Go3 as I love the magnet option and the X3 film quality is also not good enough as your finished cut is not 5.7k as that's the 360 cut/view but are also considering Pocket 3 🤷🏼♂
recently been to Mexico, took both with me, i used the Go3 as a pov sort of "discreet" camera, and i used the X3 for crane type shots and water based places. Not dissapointed at all, 2 different uses.
I've honestly never tried out a 360 camera, but have seen they've gotten so popular these days! Great video man, oh and how do you find editing the raw stuff?
Thanks Kirk, yeah they're such handy cameras to have. I've actually tended to stick with the rec709 footage just because I've found the raw a bit tricky to grade.
One thing that is not clear is that you must have a compatible phone or you cannot use the insta 360 x3. I purchased a insta 360x3 and found my samsung galaxy a13 is not compatible. No reason to buy one unless your phone is compatible. You can't just turn on the camera and take videos and pictures until you connect to your phone, which must be compatible. Useless without the right phone.
Really helpful, thanks Nick. I've been tempted to sell my X3 to help fund the purchase of a Go 3, but now I'm wondering if I should keep the X3 and save for the Go 3... Argh!
So glad it was helpful! Yeah they’re both honestly great cameras with slightly different use applications in my experience. What kind of things do you film the most?
@@NickKendall Haha, not much right now, actually! I mostly do walkaround videos for @wheelsaustralia, but I'm hoping to do some POV video to go along with my photography. The X3 has been great, but it's probably more capable than I need, which is really just a forward-facing chest-mounted action cam. That said, I'd hate to sell the X3 and realise later that I had a use for it!
360 camera are best. You can enjoy the moment and not caring about what you should look. GO3 is too expensive for the upgrade. Insta360 is fooling us again.😂
Hey Nick, I'm new to the world of action cams and am considering these two models. I plan to use the camera actively for travelling overseas and large concert purposes (as part of my travel plans with my partner). Would you recommend the x3 or the go3? Wont be using it much for mountain-related activities like hiking though
I'd maybe say the X3. You'll be able to just be in the moment while at concerts and travelling without having to worry about pointing the camera in the right direction which can take you out of the moment! :) Hope that helps!
Excellent review and comparison, both great products but for different uses.... the X3 with removable battery and removable storage is highlights other than having the obvious 360 imagery
I have both as well, but find that I use the Go 3 more. I use the X3 more for interesting 360 degree overhead shots, etc., which I'll edit later. But my favourite camera (in a sort of similar vein) is my newest: a dji Pocket 3- wonderful camera! But I still like, and use the Insta360s for different reasons. Actually, my best camera is a Sony a7C, but it's not much fun carting around on a fairly large (and also heavy, after a while) Weebill S gimbal. Incredibly, I'd say the quality of the Pocket 3 is almost as good as the a7C, in a lot of ways!
Very relevant: Would you have a video on how to use the sw on a smartphones V.s. on a PC ? The interest is to be able to share very fast, on the move or at least within an hour ?
Do you mean a video on the different between the smartphone and the desktop app? I'd say if you're trying to share fast, then the phone app is the best option :)
Nice video! Very helpful. Would love to see more Go 3 footage from the longboard sessions using the magnetic-necklace mount or hat-clip mount. For action users it would be useful seeing how the Go 3's stabilized footage compares to the X3 in that situation
Great video, this is my current challenge with proper choice between these two cameras. So, if you use single lens mode on X3 it looks like you get quite decent 'regular' camera view, right? I'm tempted to go with X3 simply for versality but I'm not an 'action shoot' person so am afraid to loose quality in 'regular' shoots but perhaps now..?:) The ones when you ride on your board is something I'm aiming at mostly.
Hmm good question; the X3 might be good since it's a different type of camera. The GO 3 is similar to the DJI in that you have to intentionally direct where you want it to film. The X3 gives you a bit more flexibility if you're using both at once.
@@NickKendall Thank you! I've been looking at x3 and the divided opinions about the fragility of lens and fogging up in humidity conditions holds me back. How do you care for your x3?
I want to do content with my corvette, going to car meets etc.. I want the x3 to attach to the back of the car for that cool 3rd person shooting, but the go3 for the POV driving experience. Anyway, I bought the go 3 midnight black last night... and now im ordering the x3 as well so both should arrive tomorrow. Do you have. anycar brackets that you can recommend besides the branded insta360 one? Cheaper options that are still sturdy?
Great video, Nick! I have a question regarding the X3: When you reframe and remove the wide-view distortion, how good does it look? I'm considering both options and would like to know more. Thanks.
I've found if you play around with the settings a bit you can get some good results for sure. Check out some of my other videos on the X3 if you want to see more of my footage. What types of videos are you hoping to shoot with a camera?
It's more about how versatile it can be and its limitations. Can it be used in contained places and cropped in enough to not see the wide-angle bends in order to match other cameras? For action cam stuff it's great but it would be nice to know if I can use it for second-angle shots for normal headshot videos at a desk or in a car etc.. @@NickKendall
I like the features of the x3 but ended up ordering the go 3 because I HATE drawing attention to myself and I feel I do when I have a selfie stick or gimbal on board
I film weddings. Which one would be best as an extra camera for wedding ceremonies and speeches? I could attach one to my camera or put it on a stand. Thanks
Well now I’m totally confused. Which is the story of my life. We are retired, with an rv and have a few cruises planned. I thought at first the go3 because the little release camera looked so handy, but the spare battery seems to be the deal breaker. Last year we did the British isles, I would have hated my camera to die in the middle of Stonehenge because I may never have the chance again. This year we are doing the Panama Canal, again, I’d hate it to die part way. Both seem to work on our snorkeling adventures in the tropics. Since we are older, and grew up in the rotary phone era, lol, is there one that would be easier for us to use, and edit?
I mean for editing definitely the go3... but if you are not a pro videographer like me, I suggest just go get the X3, a little bit less in quality but you dont need to worry about shooting angle!
I'm a cyclist and basically want to use one of these cameras for Instagram videos. Which do you think would be best? I am not a great editor so my skills are limited in that. Thank you for the video. It was very insightful.
Hmm might depend on what shots you're hoping to get. If you're mounting to the handle bars the X3 will give you more options for framing what the camera is looking at, but yeah you'll have to edit it (which is pretty easy on the phone app actually). Like I said in the video, the benefit of the GO 3 is that what you point the camera at is what you get, so less fuss in editing.
I'm pulling my hair trying to find which one to buy. My camera equipment is starting to take most of my bag so the Go 3 sounds amazing with the discreet POV mounts and versatility (sounds very good for hiking and short 'city tour' videos). But the 'shoot first reframe later' also sounds amazing especially for diving (case needed for each anyway). So yes I'm still lost between easy/portable vs epic shots no need to worry. Also if I understood correctly the invisible stick does not work with Go 3 ?
Yep, that's right the invisible stick won't work with the GO3. I just took the X3 on a trip to Europe and to be honest I'm so glad I took that one. It meant I didn't have to think about framing all the time and I got some really good results with both photos and videos. Hard to go wrong with the X3 :)
I have the X3 and love it, but I'm planning on getting the Go 3 as well and using them together. One for the cool action shots, the other for POV style shots as well as using the magnetic feature to get some unique shots
Hi nick, i just want a tiny camera just to capture happy moments of my kids without scrambling trying to look for my phone in the depths of my bag. What camera is better? I'll be using it to capture photos too and later print them so I would like something with good resolution, too. Is gopro better? I had a gopro 9 before but gave it to my brother as he has more use to it when he's biking. I'd love to hear your suggestion. Thanks
The big benefit of the X3 might be that you can enjoy the moment with your kids without having to worry about pointing the camera in the right direction. So that's worth considering. I'd guess that the GO 3 might do better photos than the X3. I haven't had much experience with GoPro so probably can't add much there sorry. Hope that's helpful!
Great video! Not sure if it has been mentioned already, but on the X3 you can choose to pick the front or rear camera if you want to just have that action camera feel. The Go 3 is great for everyday stuff and creative shots, while I use my X3 everyday, as well. So.. go buy both!
I’ve always used GoPro, currently on the Hero 10 and not experienced any of the usual reported issues. BUT I want to change as everyone else is innovating. My main use is family holidays, videoing pool time, beach time, snorkelling, days out, and then compile a video with music to watch back when home. Which one of these would you recommend for that kind of use?
Either way you go, you'll be able to compile some cool videos with AI in the Insta360 app! For me it's still really nice not to have to worry too much about framing while I'm shooting which allows me to be in the moment. Could be good if you want to enjoy your holiday while also capturing footage? :)
There's a set it and forget it aspect to the X3 in regards to reframing in post. But are there any options to clip it quickly to parts of your body like the Go 3 does? Example: hat, chest, maybe clip it via a small snake tripod. I'd like to take a bunch of quick 10-20second shots (with minimal recording startup time) that I can stitch together quickly from my phone at the end of the day, without needing to lug around a selfie stick.
I have both, took them to disneyworld but mostly used the X3 since you don't have to pay attention to where you are shooting. Tried to use the go3 but didn't find so many opportunities as I did with the X3.

Enable ACTIVE HDR on X3 for 360 videos then you will not get over exposed videos.

For me it's still really nice not to have to worry too much about framing while I'm shooting which allows me to be in the moment. Could be good if you want to enjoy your holiday while also capturing footage? :)
For casual shooting (like family holidays) is it best to put it into single lens mode to maximize resolution?
There's a set it and forget it aspect to the X3 in regards to reframing in post. But are there any options to clip it quickly to parts of your body like the Go 3 does? Example: hat, chest, maybe clip it via a small snake tripod. I'd like to take a bunch of quick 10-20second shots (with minimal recording startup time) that I can stitch together quickly from my phone at the end of the day, without needing to lug around a selfie stick.
